About this study

Official title: Study of Carfilzomib in Transplant Eligible Newly Diagnosed High-risk Multiple Myeloma

Patients with high risk multiple myeloma have shorter remission periods and reduced overall survival. Prognostic significance of minimal residual disease negative remission is being highlighted in many of the newer studies.

The current phase 2 study investigates the combination of carfilzomib together with cyclophosphamide and dexamethasone in patients with high risk multiple myeloma in younger transplant-eligible patients.

Read the detailed description

Carfilzomib is administered over 30 minutes as an infusion. For cycle 1 only, Carfilzomib is administered at 20mg/m2 IV on days 1 and 2, followed by escalation to 36 mg/m2 on days 8,9,15 and 16 on a 28 day cycle. Patients who tolerate 36 mg/m2 dose are kept at this dose for the subsequent cycles on Days 1, 2, 8, 9, 15, 16 on a 28 day cycle. Dose and schedule modifications for intolerable side effects are detailed in the protocol. Additionally Cyclophosphamide is given a fixed dose of 500mg once per week orally, along with dexamethasone, given on the days of Carfilzomib administration, 30 minutes to 4 hours prior to Carfilzomib. Patients will undergo blood tests weekly and serum protein electrophoresis every 4 weeks during treatment. Within completion of 5 cycles of treatment, patients would undergo stem cell collection using chemotherapy and GCSF mobilization. After completion of 6 cycles of treatment, autologous bone marrow transplantation will be performed. Three months following bone marrow transplantation, subjects will undergo further 2 consolidation cycles. After consolidation, subjects will undergo disease assessment by blood and subjects who are in CR will undergo bone marrow investigations and MRD analysis MPFC. Patients who achieve MRD negativity by MPFC will be managed expectantly by watch and wait. Patients who are MRD positive at this stage will receive maintenance for 2 years or till disease progression. Follow up would extend till a minimum of 2 years from completion of the study. At the end of 2 years post maintenance or expectant monitoring, subjects who are in CR will undergo disease assessment by blood and bone marrow investigations and MRD analysis MPFC.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Carfilzomib, , Cyclophosphamide, DexamethasoneDrug

    Also called Kyprolis

    Carfilzomib is administered intraveneously over 30 minutes. For cycle 1 only, Carfilzomib is administered at 20mg/m2 on Day 1 and 2, dose will be escalated to 36mg/m2 on Day 8,9,15 and 16 of the 28-days cycle. Patients who tolerate the 36mg/m2 dose are kept at this dose for the subsequent cycles on Day 1,2,8,9,15,16 on a 28 days cycle. Cyclophosphamide is given at a fixed dose of 500mg once per week orally, along with dexamethasone which is given on the days of Carfilzomib administration, 30 minutes to 4 hours prior to Carfilzomib infusion.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Single ArmExperimentalThe combination therapy of Carfilzomib, cyclophosphamide and dexamethasone (KCyd) will be used to treat eligible patients for up to 6 cycles.This will be followed by an autologous bone marrow transplantation and 2 further consolidation cycles of KCyd. Depending on their disease response, patients will be managed expectantly or be started on maintenance.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Progression Free Survival

    To study the progression free survival (PFS) in patients with newly diagnosed high risk multiple myeloma treated with Carfilzomib, Cyclophosphamide and Dexamethasone, followed by autologous bone marrow transplantation.

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Minimal residual disease negativity

    Minimal residual disease burden at different time points, as assessed by multi parameter flow cytometry (MPFC).

    Measured: 2 years

  2. Overall Survival (OS)

    OS is defined as the time from entering study to death of any cause.

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Carfilzomib, , Cyclophosphamide, Dexamethasone in people with Multiple Myeloma, run by Singapore General Hospital at 2 sites in Singapore.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 9 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Oct 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Singapore. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Progression Free Survival (time frame: 2 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 20 Oct 2020.
